VENCE, Agustina. Argentina between New York and London, the External Financing during the First World War. Am. Lat. Hist. Econ [online]. 2019, vol.26, n.1, e938. ISSN 2007-3496.  https://doi.org/10.18232/alhe.938.

One of the main characteristics of the Argentine economy until the outbreak of the First World War was the strong relationship with European financial markets, particularly with London. The beginning of the war caused an alteration in the markets and the displacement of the international finance center from London to New York. This change involved finding alternative ways to finance public works projects, as well as negotiating with a new actor, which meant developing new financial relationships, with other financial agents and a new political consensus. The main objective of this paper is to analyze the link between Argentina and the New York and London markets, with special attention to the actions of European and North American financial groups, as well as the conditions, markets, and ways in which The Argentine government took debt, during the First World War.
